Born Poor Does Not Mean Born To Be Poor

in #teardrops7 years ago

He was born with a silver spoon

The above proverb or saying is used to describe a person that was born in a wealthy family. It does not mean that such a one came into this world with silver spoon in his or her mouth but was born into wealth.
That you were born poor does not make you an unfortunate being. That poverty is used to descibe your personality does not mean that your future will remain as terrible as your current state.
That you were born poor does not give you the certificate to remain poor in life unless you choose to.

Yes, I agree that poverty has done so much harm to you, in the sense that many of your dreams and goals were put to a hold because of the state of poverty. I understand what it means to be poor and what it means to be hungry because no money to eat anything: I have been there
That I was born without a silver spoon does not mean my children wouldn’t be born with one. I have over and over again said to myself

I can not be poor in life

It’s not pride neither are mine boastful but I am determined to stop my children from tasting what their father has being through from childhood until now. I will be a wicked father if i don't make life better for my children.
That i was born poor might be the fault of my parents but if i should die poor then its my fault

Poverty Is Good!

Hey don’t attack me about the above statement because poverty has brought out the greatness in me and has taught me some lessons that will lead me throughout my life and living on earth.
In the valley of that dungeon called poverty, I have learnt many things that if life was comfortable for me, I wouldn’t have being able to have learnt them. Poverty brought me into the world of cryptocurrency, blogging and trading( forex and alt coins trading). Poverty has been a great teacher to me.

Deal with that poverty that has ravaged your life by equipping yourself with knowledge, skill and learning a trade.
Many of my fellow christian brothers and sisters will think that holiness alone will handle poverty but that is not true. You have your own part to play in eradicating poverty from your life.

Make poverty your teacher and not your friend

Knowledge is what we all need!!!!

I agree with you strongly!!!

Thanks brother.

Powerful post! Press on! Learn those skills. You Are 100% and I wish you total success!!

Thanks. Success all the way to us.

I am 100% agree with you. Being born poor will not hinder us to be wealthy, but living in life entertaining poverty will definitely bring us wealth and success.

I always tell myself that my family and roots are poor, so I have to be the start of our wealthy generation. In that way, I will be able to make my family proud, through learning things. We started at the bottom of the trail, then let's work it out to reach the summit.

That's the spirit. Success all head. I can not be poor.

It's all about one's mentality.

You are what you think!

Weldone bro

You are what you think!

That is just the truth because your life can not be greater than your thoughts

Great motivation my friend

Thanks for reading. Stay motivated

Correct! 😀😀😀😀

Make poverty to succeed in life. 😀

Agreed that knowledge is a must. We have to educate ourselves. Wealth is in wisdom. I love this post. Stay inspired.

@shawnamawna thanks so much for that response. wealth is in knowledge

These are words to live by. We should not be limited by what we cannot do.

That is just the truth. Living above limitations and trying the impossible

That’s great thinking sir. I’m just wondering about people in other countries that are born poor but are not given a chance to learn and advance themselves. India for sure. Some Poor people there are marked with tatoos and not aloud to do anything but meeger jobs such as cleaning the dirty streets and digging graves. It’s not always that easy too get out of poverty due to politics and evil governments. Feel lucky that you were able to stand up for yourself and grow. Take care.

That's true but if awareness is taken to such areas. Things will surely get better.

agreed! Thanks for the response.

The truth is that ....If what is in your hand right now is greater than what is in your heart,soonest,you will come to poverty!!!!

But if your mind is pregnant with ideas,and your hand is empty now...,dont be afraid,there is hope that your hand will be wet ....Your knowledge will make your hands wet...In addition,see what God has to say-----(for a living dog is better than a dead lion!!!!!

Sure there is always hope if one can be determined to succeed.
